# mkspiffs
Tool to build and unpack [SPIFFS](https://github.com/pellepl/spiffs) images.

## Usage

```

mkspiffs {-c |-u |-l|-i} [-d <0-5>] [-b ]
[-p ] [-s ] [--] [--version] [-h]

Where:

-c , --create
(OR required) create spiffs image from a directory
-- OR --
-u , --unpack
(OR required) unpack spiffs image to a directory
-- OR --
-l, --list
(OR required) list files in spiffs image
-- OR --
-i, --visualize
(OR required) visualize spiffs image

-d <0-5>, --debug <0-5>
Debug level. 0 means no debug output.

-b , --block
fs block size, in bytes

-p , --page
fs page size, in bytes

-s , --size
fs image size, in bytes

--, --ignore_rest
Ignores the rest of the labeled arguments following this flag.

--version
Displays version information and exits.

-h, --help
Displays usage information and exits.


(required) spiffs image file

```
## Build

[![Build status](http://img.shields.io/travis/igrr/mkspiffs.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/igrr/mkspiffs)

You need gcc (≥4.8) or clang(≥600.0.57), and make. On Windows, use MinGW.

Run:
```bash
$ git submodule update --init
$ make dist
```

## SPIFFS configuration

Some SPIFFS options which are set at mkspiffs build time affect the format of the generated filesystem image. Make sure such options are set to the same values when builing mkspiffs and when building the application which uses SPIFFS.

These options include:

- SPIFFS_OBJ_NAME_LEN
- SPIFFS_OBJ_META_LEN
- SPIFFS_USE_MAGIC
- SPIFFS_USE_MAGIC_LENGTH
- SPIFFS_ALIGNED_OBJECT_INDEX_TABLES
- possibly others

To see the default values of these options, check `include/spiffs_config.h` file in this repository.

To override some options at build time, pass extra `CPPFLAGS` to `make`. You can also set `BUILD_CONFIG_NAME` variable to distinguish the built binary:

```bash
$ make clean
$ make dist CPPFLAGS="-DSPIFFS_OBJ_META_LEN=4" BUILD_CONFIG_NAME=-custom
```

To check which options were set when building mkspiffs, use `--version` command:

```
$ mkspiffs --version
mkspiffs ver. 0.2.2
Build configuration name: custom
SPIFFS ver. 0.3.7-5-gf5e26c4
Extra build flags: -DSPIFFS_OBJ_META_LEN=4
SPIFFS configuration:
SPIFFS_OBJ_NAME_LEN: 32
SPIFFS_OBJ_META_LEN: 4
SPIFFS_USE_MAGIC: 1
SPIFFS_USE_MAGIC_LENGTH: 1
SPIFFS_ALIGNED_OBJECT_INDEX_TABLES: 0
```
